And to be honest, it's pretty rare that I can justify spending so much more on a "special edition" versus the regular line. Perfect example for me is Tatuaje...I LOVE my Tats, but I won't shell out a ton of money to get my hands on the next special edition that could be near impossible to find, and when it's found, near impossible to afford.
I see it this way...when I was collecting baseball cards, I abandoned all of the sub-sets and just stuck with what I loved...I'll do the same for my cigars.
